About This Listing

With Airbnb, you can find unique accommodations in people's homes—from houses and apartments, to tree houses and igloos. The listing details below explain what you'll find in this space. If you have any questions, you can contact the host directly.

The Ojai Valley is nestled between coastal mountains with awe inspiring views and only 25 minutes from the ocean. The Studio sits in a rare downtown location on a quiet tree-lined street just a block from the best part of downtown. Parking your car once and not moving it all weekend is easy to do.

Unwind. The cottage has been designed to give you a relaxing stay. It has been recently renovated with a wide open floor plan and attention to detail and style but above all comfort.

Out on Ojai Ave. you will find fine restaurants that use fresh and locally sourced ingredients from nearby farms and ranches, tasting rooms from local vineyards, coffee shops, bookstores, live music, open-air concerts at Libbey Park (complete with playground), shopping, galleries and the Ojai Museum. Hiking trails and bike paths start a short block away.

We are green friendly! To lessen our carbon foot print a few things we do are solar electric, green cleaning supplies and refillable dispensers for our organic Shea butter lotion, shampoo and body wash. We also provide reusable bags to use for local shopping (Ojai is a bag free city).

About Ojai

This valley is bordered by several mountain ranges Topa Topa, Los Padres National Forest and Black Mountain are a few. It's a lush valley who's east end is filled with with citrus and olive groves. The city's downtown is anchored by a beautiful 1917 Spanish Colonial Revival arcade filled with local stores and restaurants.

We had a wonderful stay at Rob and Pam's place! It was our first time in Ojai and the studio was perfect - we were within walking distance to all of the downtown Ojai spots on our list (most just two blocks away). The studio was beautifully decorated, clean, and comfortable, and Rob and Pam supplied nice soaps, tea, and coffee. It was perfect for our needs. Rob stayed in communication throughout our stay and was incredibly accommodating. Will definitely stay here again next time we are in Ojai and would highly recommend!

Studio 203 has all that is needed for a complete relaxing and special getaway! From the light filled spaciousness, to the comfy bed, to the details such as palo santo wood incense, and cream for supplied coffee and tea…all allows for a feeling of home away from home but with a design’s eye that inspires. You will love that the studio is a light walk away from Rainbow Bridge Market and all the downtown Ojai shops and restaurants. It is private and quiet infused. Only one wall is shared with the main house yet professionally sound proof. I heard absolutely nothing from the main house. You really feel as though you have your own home right in the heart of all the Ojai charm. This is now my second stay and for sure I will come back for more. Rob, was a gentlemen. He communicated well and was there to greet me and make sure I had everything that I needed for a pleasant stay. I am grateful. My experience with 203 reminds me why Ojai is such a special place. Yes, nature did indeed bless the valley; however, it is really all about her people. They invite and share their love for the place they live! Thank you, Rob, for everything.

The perfect spot to stay in Ojai. Walking distance to pretty much everywhere you'd want to go on a weekend trip. The place was clean and newly renovated. Rob was very personable and had plenty of recommendations on food, shops, hikes and anything else you'd want to know about the town. My girlfriend and I got away form LA for her birthday and it was a great, relaxing weekend.

The only thing that caught me a little off guard was the fact that the unit is not a stand-alone space. It is connected to the rest of the house and there is another bedroom next to this space. His daughter and friends stayed in that room for the first night, but it wasn't an issue.

This was our first Airbnb experience and it sets the bar high. The location was ideal, just steps from shops and restaurants but far enough away from the main street to offer privacy. Rob and Pam anticipate their guests every need which is evident by their immaculate space and eye for detail. Rob was a gracious host and offered great suggestions for eating and sight-seeing. He even had umbrellas ready for the forecasted rain. Unlike a conventional bnb you get to experience a little taste of what it's like to live in Ojai. We researched many hotels and Bed and Breakfast inns before choosing Studio 203 and we're glad we did. Our experience in Ojai was idyllic and we look forward to returning soon. Thank you for your warm welcome.

I absolutely loved the cozy studio. It was exactly as described on the web site. The host (Rob) was the person I dealt with during my stay. He was very open with his communications and is the perfect host. He had bottled water in the fridge, coffee/tea/cream for the morning available. Soap, shampoo, body wash all provided although no blow dryer in the place, I'm sure if I asked for it, he would have provided one for me. Very, Very accomodating. Walking distance to downtown Ojai, so just park your car and walk the town. Very close to restaurants, grocery stores, and shops. Hiking is also really close by and gorgeous views of the Ojai Valley. I would highly recommend staying here and hope to back again soon. If you want to practice yoga, lulu bandha is 2 blocks down!! Thank you, Rob for making my first trip to Ojai, a magical one!!!

Perfect location. Lovely design. Spacious and comfortable. Rob & Pam were easy to communicate with and point us in the right direction to enjoy the lovely town. Great stay especially since you can walk to all the shops & restaurants. We will def be coming back.
